Ingredients

  • 8 raw chicken thighs
  • 1/2 cup dates, pitted and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Add the chopped dates and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

Add the balsamic vinegar, honey, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, and ground black pepper to the saucepan.

Stir well and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the glaze thickens.

Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and season with salt and pepper.

Pour the date glaze over the chicken thighs, making sure they are evenly coated.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.

Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Serve the spicy date glazed chicken thighs with your favorite side dish, such as roasted vegetables or rice.
